The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has extended its condolences to Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali following the heartbreaking loss of his mother.

Nwabali shared the tragic news on Wednesday, just months after the passing of his father in November 2024.

The dual losses have made this an incredibly tough period for the 28-year-old shot-stopper, who was on international duty when his father passed away.

In a message of support shared on X, the NFF expressed its sympathy, saying, “Our heartfelt condolences to Stanley Nwabali on the loss of his mother.

Stay strong, Stanley. We’re sending you strength and support during this difficult time.

You are not alone; we are all with you.”
